Dot is a strong supporter of groups. We feel they help distributors increase sales and expand their marketing capabilities. Dot provides groups with several advantages:
Dot's advanced technologies allow seamless reporting so manufacturers can pay groups, and so groups can reconcile manufacturer payments and track distributor sales. Dot's reporting allows accurate recording and transfer of license fees and payments.
Dot enthusiastically attends all group food shows. Our participation gives us great opportunities to meet with our distributor customers and discuss our 500 product lines.
Dot carries group private labels to have access to more lines that we can offer our customers, and as a service of good faith.
As redistribution continues to grow in importance, Dot helps groups develop a redistribution strategy that maximizes profits and supply chain efficiencies.
There are 8 major foodservice buying groups.
